As the world fights the coronavirus, it is quickly becoming evident that “business as usual” no longer applies. New business models will be evaluated, and massive “pivots” may be needed to meet the evolving needs of our society. The Digital Enterprise is best poised to be part of the new “non-normal” environment we now operate in.
Here are five key trends that appear poised for significant focus and investment in 2020 on the Aerospace and Defense (A&D) industry.
Out-of-the-box installation of software solution provides manufacturing efficiency and organization-wide compliance
We have a generational conflict going on in MRO and sustainment operations. Veteran personnel, many of whom are nearing retirement age, have learned invaluable, hands-on skills. The new crop of arrivals have quite a different orientation, growing up in a digital world.
Industry 4.0, then, is changing the face of manufacturing. But technologies such as AI, analytics, machine learning and IIoT fall largely into the IT camp. This requires a Manufacturing Execution System (MES) designed and built for the complex discrete manufacturing while also providing a pathway towards digital transformation.
The most advanced know that a powerful ecosystem of alliance partners, including market leader Accenture working with software technology innovators like iBASEt, can team together to provide an operational architecture capable of supporting the most demanding complex manufacturing enterprise.
iBASEt’s launches solution that delivers quick deployment of streamlined business and engineering processes for complex discrete MRO operations.
iBASEt, a leading provider of digital manufacturing, MRO and quality software solutions, today announced the addition of Evan Sloss to the iBASEt European team.
This IDC MarketScape report assesses software providers in the global MES market. The report noted that “the core strengths of iBASEt reside in its strong vertical alignment. The company aims that customers report 85–90% of functionality desired for the industry is ready to use out of the box.”
Digitally advanced companies are not just those focused on the consumer. As it turns out, there are digitization champions in just about every vertical. This includes the aerospace and defense industries where the goal is comprehensive digitization of manufacturing to encompass all shop floor, administrative, management and supply chain interactions.
